Range SW Error
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 15 other vehicles, including the 2014 Subaru Tribeca, 2014 Subaru Outback, 2014 Subaru Legacy, 2013 Subaru Tribeca, and 2013 Subaru Outback. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When a range SW error is detected, the gear is shifted to any of 1st, 3rd and 5th depending on the gear range before failure. If ignition is turned to OFF while a range SW error is detected, hydraulic control is electrically set to neutral after engine start until a range is selected.
